  • In person, at the counter.
  • By mail.

After full payment is received and all requirements are met a permit may be issued; for "basic service jurisdictions" on ePermitting, a work authorization may be issued allowing work to begin, but the basic service jurisdiction will issue the actual permit and notify contractor how to schedule inspections.
